Objects

We've pre-populated a tutorial database modeling social network data for this part of the tutorial. Let's explore it by using some basic queries.

Objects in EdgeDB can have properties, which are just the values associated with the objects. For example, to query all the user names try:

Input

SELECT User.name;

SELECT User.name;

Run

Output

Press the 'Run' button to evaluate the input

It's also possible to get the object properties in a JSON-like structure by using shapes. For example, to query all the user names try:

Input

SELECT User {name};

SELECT User {name};

Run

Output

Press the 'Run' button to evaluate the input
